Virtualize Handheld Items

Virtualize Handheld Items is an instruction set for the Virtualize Relics step of Evolution Seed creation as part of the INDX project in the SparkQuest Metagame. It’s used to most custom player-created weapons and tools.

These instructions are for players who wish to create custom weapons and tools, which are “handheld items” in Minecraft. Minecraft items are composed of two parts: a model JSON file which controls the 3D shape of the item and a texture PNG that colors that shape.
